Notes on disposal
Disposing of packaging
!
Risk of suffocation

Danger of death
Danger of death from electrocution or suffocation. Your old dryer: Disconnect it from the mains. Cut through the mains cable and discard along with the plug. Break the door lock. This prevents children from locking themselves in the dryer. Environmentally-friendly disposal conserves valuable raw materials. Any retailer or your local authority will be able to advise you on the disposal methods currently available. This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).

Notes on laundry
Labelling of fabrics
Observe the following fabric symbols: DRYING Drying in a tumble dryer permitted Wring, hang on a washing line to dry Do not wring, hang up wet and allow to drip dry Wring, lay on a flat surface to dry Do not tumble dry Dry at normal temperature Dry at low temperature
Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics: Impermeable fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated fabrics). Delicate materials (silk, curtains made from synthetic material) they may crease. Dripping-wet laundry high energy consumption. Wool or fabrics containing wool. Observe the manufacturer's instructions.
12
Tips on drying
Important for all drying cycles: To obtain a uniform drying result: sort the laundry by fabric type and drying program. Fasten zips, hooks and eyes. Tie loose belts, apron strings etc., together. Do not over-dry easy-care laundry: Risk of creasing. Allow laundry to finish drying in the air. Do not over-dry laundry. Do not iron laundry immediately after drying. Leave laundry folded up for a short while. This helps the residual moisture to distribute evenly. Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumbledried. Do not use the Extra Dry programme.
13
First use
Drying
Please read this instruction manual before using the dryer for the first time: 1. Open the door. 2. Place the laundry into the empty drum.
3. Close the door. 4. Select a programme using the programme selector. 5. Set additional functions if required (see page 17). 6. Press the Start button.

14
Selecting a program
Selecting
Your dryer offers different programmes and the additional Low Heat function for optimum drying (see page 17).
Our drying programs are designed to protect your laundry with minimum energy consumption. Your laundry will feel damper than it really is because of the residual warmth after drying.
If the degree of laundry drying still does not meet your expectations after the laundry has cooled down, please use the next-higher drying program or the timer program.
Programme sequence
During the Standard programmes, the dryer uses an electronic sensor system which constantly monitors how wet the laundry is. The drying cycle automatically stops as soon as the level of dryness set has been reached. The indicator lamps (LEDs) display the programme status.
15

Risk of explosion
There is a risk of explosion from solvents. Never use solvents for cleaning. The dryer may be damaged if it is not cleaned correctly. Do not spray the dryer with a water jet. Do not use abrasive agents or general-purpose cleaners. Clean the housing and the control panel with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.
Fluff filter
Clean the fluff filter after each drying cycle. Bobbling (fluff) occurs when fabrics become worn. These bobbles come off during the drying cycle and collect in the fluff filter. A clogged filter results in longer drying times and higher energy consumption. 1. Open the door. 2. Pull the filter out towards the top. 3. Remove the fluff (by drawing your hand across the filter). 4. Replace the filter (it can only be inserted one way round). 5. Close the door.
18
Before replacing the bulb disconnect the plug from the socket or switch Off the fuse/circuit breaker.
!
Never operate the tumble dryer without the light cover! Open the door. Remove the bulb cover.
Cover and gasket must rest tightly in bearing to prevent ingress of moisture.

Risk of injury
The dryer is very heavy. Do not attempt to lift it on your own. Do not lift the dryer by any of the projecting parts (e.g. the door) they may break off.
Risk of tripping
There is a risk of tripping due to cables or hoses hanging down. Secure loose cables or hoses. Check the dryer for damage caused during transportation. Do not connect the dryer if it has visible signs of damage. If in doubt, contact a specialist retailer. Empty the dryer completely before transporting.
24
Never place the appliance behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with the hinge on the opposing side to the appliance. Position the appliance so that the door of the tumble dryer can be opened unimpeded. That exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. The dryer must be positioned so it is level on the floor. Use a spirit level to ensure that this is the case. The height of the feet can be adjusted. If necessary, use these to line the dryer up, as described below: Loosen the counter nuts. Turn the feet so that they compensate for the height of the machine. Retighten the counter nuts.
Do not trap the mains cable between the dryer and the wall. Leave a minimum distance of 10 cm between the ventilation support and the wall.
!
Make sure that there is easy access at all times to the earth contact socket.
The dryer can be placed on top of a Bosch washing machine of the same dimensions to save space.
!
Risk of injury For reasons of safety, the dryer must be installed by an expert. Always use a connection set to secure the dryer to the washing machine.
There are exhaust air outlets in the left side wall and the rear panel of the dryer. Select the most suitable exhaust air outlet after installing the dryer. Cover the other outlet with the accompanying fascia cover turn it in a clockwise direction.
1 Plastic cover 2 Exhaust air hose Place the end of the exhaust air hose in the open air without bending the hose. The exhaust air hose should only be positioned horizontally or vertically and never left to sag. The exhaust air hose should not be more than 2 m long. Position the exhaust air hose so that there is no counterpressure (e.g. from wind) on the exhaust outlet.
26
Electrical connection
Only connect the dryer to an earthed outlet installed in accordance with regulations. Make sure that the voltage details on the rating plate (visible when the door is open) correspond with the mains voltage where the appliance is set up. The connected load and the fuse or miniature circuit breaker are also specified on the rating plate. Make sure that the plug and the socket match, the cross section of the cable is sufficient and the earthing system has been installed in accordance with regulations. Do not use multiple plugs/adapters or an extension cable. Only pull the mains plug out of the socket using the grip on the plug. Do not connect the appliance to the mains with wet hands. Only have the mains cable replaced by the after-sales service. If the mains cable for the dryer is damaged, have it replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service.
